MERCmNDISING WHMT’S IN-STORE

MUSIC PLUS X IQUALS HUNDREDS •— A pair of in-store appearances by the ac- claimed Los Angeles punk group X at Music Plus outlets in L.A. has left Alan Schwartz, director of creative marketing at parent company Show Industries, well, ecstatic. “The group was sensational,” he exclaimed, in reporting that the group sold “hundreds” of albums at each store. The in-stores took place on Saturday, June 19, one day after Elektra Records released “Under The Big Black Sun” and a day before a concert at the Greek Theatre. The band first appeared at the chain’s Hollywood store, then moved over to the new Santa Monica store (Cash Box, July 3). “It’s rare when so much product is sold at in-store appearances,” continued Schwartz, adding that some 700 fans tur- ned out at each store, many to buy records and get them autographed. He went on to explain that most in-stores usually use a “big name” to draw attention to the store rather than to sell records, but that by tying in-stores in with a new release, particularly from a “group exploding on the scene” as in the case of X, both could be accomplished. As for X itself, “The town is just nuts about X based on that weekend,” Schwartz noted. “I’ve done in-stores with a lot of big names, but X went way beyond the call of duty. It’s easy to form an opinion based on the band’s hype and appearance, and many of the fans looked outrageous. But everything worked out beautifully, and we sold tons of product.” Schwartz also praised Elektra and radio station KROQ for setting up a remote at the Santa Monica store, where a trip to see X in New York was given away. “I love

events,” he concluded, “but I especially love events that sell records.
